The station is a two-level, underground station with an island platform. It has four exits, two of which are equipped with elevators.[3] It is named for the nearby National Taiwan University Hospital. The station has exits to National Taiwan University Hospital, National Taiwan Museum and 228 Peace Memorial Park.
Several pieces of public art are located on the platform, titled "The Suite of Hands" consisting of "Lotus Holding Hand", "Lotus in Heartful Hands", and "Small Park".[4] These bronze and/or granite sculptures depict how hands, through gestures, can express human affection.
This station was opened for service on 24 December 1998.
On 10 October 2004, after the Madrid bombings, a man placed a bomb in the station. No injuries were reported.[5]
